"Ok, if that is what you say, then why did you say that I was wrong in post 11 when I said the same thing. Strange logic you have."

There is no strange logic at all. I highlighted the word God in my post to differentiate between the supposed agents of any miracle. Your italicization of my quote obliterates the italics I myself used for the word "God." I ascribe any miracle coming from the use of the water to God, while you ascribe any claim of a miracle to the water itself. We Catholics do not make the mistake of supposing that the water would be anything more than an instrument in conveying God's miraculous favor, just as the mud that Jesus used to give sight to the blind was just His instrument in that circumstance.

Hmm. Do you speak for all RC's? You must not for this woman, for her actions do not say that. Neither do multitudes of others. I don't expect you to understand that though.
